Amos 4:4-13
4ComeH935 to Beth-el, and transgressH6586; to GilgalH1537, and multiplyH7235 transgression; and bringH935 your sacrificesH2077 every morningH1242, and your tithesH4643 every threeH7969 daysH3117; 5and offer a sacrifice of thanksgivingH8426 of that which is leavenedH2557, and proclaimH7121 freewill-offerings and publish them: for this pleaseth you, O ye children of IsraelH3478, saith the LordH136 Jehovah.
6And I alsoH1571 have givenH5414 you cleanness of teethH8127 in all your citiesH5892, and want of breadH3899 in all your placesH4725; yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saith Jehovah. 7And I alsoH1571 have withholden the rainH1653 from you, whenH834 there were yetH5750 threeH7969 monthsH2320 to the harvestH7105; and I caused it to rainH1653 upon oneH259 cityH5892, and caused it not to rainH1653 upon another cityH5892: oneH259 piece was rainedH4305 upon, and the piece whereupon it rainedH4305 not witheredH3001. 8So twoH8147 or threeH7969 citiesH5892 wanderedH5128 unto oneH259 cityH5892 to drinkH8354 waterH4325, and were not satisfiedH7646: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saith Jehovah. 9I have smitten you with blasting and mildewH3420: the multitude of your gardensH1593 and your vineyardsH3754 and your fig-trees and your olive-trees hath the palmer-worm devouredH398: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saith Jehovah. 10I have sentH7971 among you the pestilenceH1698 after the manner of EgyptH4714: your youngH970 menH970 have I slainH2026 with the swordH2719, and have carried awayH7971 your horsesH5483; and I have made the stenchH889 of your campH4264 to comeH5927 up even into your nostrilsH639: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saith Jehovah. 11I have overthrown cities among you, as when GodH430 overthrewH2015 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and ye wereH1961 as a brand plucked out of the burningH8316: yet have ye not returnedH7725 unto me, saith Jehovah.
12ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 will I do unto thee, O IsraelH3478; and because I will do this unto thee, prepareH3559 to meet thy GodH430, O IsraelH3478. 13For, lo, he that formeth the mountainsH2022, and createth the windH7307, and declareth unto manH120 what is his thought; that maketh the morning darknessH5890, and treadeth upon the highH1116 placesH1116 of the earthH776—Jehovah, the GodH430 of hostsH6635, is his nameH8034.
